WattmonMINI

WattmonMINIThe WattmonMINI is a reduced version of the WattmonPRO with a single Modbus RTU port. It is a smaller and more cost effective product with less features, designed for the sole purpose of collecting data over RS-485 and transmitting it to the web: current sensors, power meters, inverters and charge controllers can all be connected to the Modbus for remote monitoring and control.

Compared to the PRO and the MEGA, which support Modbus, RS-232 Serial and several other I/Os, the MINI supports only RS-485 Modbus RTU/TCP. Although it does not have the I/O connectivity of the PRO or the MEGA, the MINI has the same functionality, with an identical firmware, OS and web interface. The MINI utilizes the same Ethernet, USB 3G or GPRS interfaces as the PRO.

The MINI comes with an inbuilt AC adapter, making it possible to power it from any AC outlet between 80 and 240V AC. Similar to the PRO and the MEGA, it consumes less than 2 watts of power without accessory devices.

These User Manuals are somewhat “dated”, having been written during times when the newer Wattmons had not yet been released, and they sometimes feature or show specific Modules or Hardware that are obsolete (no longer available). However, the OS is the same for all of the Wattmons. Therefore the hardware differences are the only thing to keep in mind when using these manuals, especially the MINI which does not have the additional I/O ports that are provided on the PRO and MEGA.
